You're a new merc on a one way flight to the middle of Africa to fight Communism. What do you take?
Me? This is what I'm taking.  Cuban contract pattern AR-10 in 7.62 NATO  S&W Model 39 in 9x19mm The AR-10 served well with Portuguese Forces in Angola, Mozambique, and Cape Verde. Light weight, capable, and reliable. The S&W was a modern DA/SA 9mm and the South Africans used its inspiration, the P38 alongside with Star Model BMs in 9mm to good effect in Southwest Africa against SWAPO. |

FAL and BHP.
Probably good local parts/mags/ammo availability for both. They should be easy enough to sell on the local market to buy a plane ticket so I don't die in a 3rd-world hellhole. |

Before I even clicked on this, AR10 was already on the list. Probably a Hi Power for a handgun for ammo availability and spare parts and mags.

The best AK I could scrounge along with a CZ75.
But I'd be ok with an M16A1, 1911... |

M14 and a 1911
 But more likely the FAL and BHP, they seem to be the African standard. And shorts, short shorts.  |

I think peak merc was earlier, from about 64 to 66.
More common arms would be better choices, FAL and Highpower were pretty common. |

I changed my mind. As much as I love the 50.63, I think I’m going with cut down RPD
